Arizona State was first to strike on Saturday, punching in a run in the first inning for the 19th time this season. Bailey Wigness came in, unearned, following a single up the middle by Cheyenne Coyle.

Lucy Aubrecht stretched the lead after going long in the bottom of the second, putting ASU up 2-0. The home run was her fifth of the season. After a quiet third inning, the Sun Devils came up big in the fourth and plated five runs on just two hits.

In a two-out rally, Arizona State capitalized on a Washington error and Elizabeth Caporuscio's plate appearance, 3-0. Caporuscio was brought home on Amber Freeman's homer to right in the next at-bat. Coyle then reached by way of walk and scored on ASU's second homer of the frame, this time by Haley Steele for the 7-0 lead. All runs in the inning went unearned.

Escobedo and crew coasted to the seventh inning, retiring seven of the eight batters faced until Kylee Lahners homered to center to break up the shutout, 7-1. The ASU defense snagged the final two outs to close the books on Escobedo's three-hit victory, the ace fanning seven Huskies along the way.
